On View
Not on viewIn this screenprint, Mavignier depicted abstract forms composed entirely of dots. Viewers tracing the array of dots may sense an underlying rhythm, as the dots seem to grow and diminish in size. The picture appears to breathe and move despite the almost mechanical precision of Mavignier’s rendering.
